MoltenMagma: You can say that again, thumbs up bro. This is an idea that the government of this country should have tapped into but, even this sector has its own cabals who are usually like rats at the corridors of power and because of their political affiliation, the government may not want to step on their toes. It bleeds my heart whenever I heard that food is cheaper up north but the cost of transportation and the endless police exploitative road blocks are the challenges. I would sometimes wonder, what exactly is wrong with our brains in this country? these are jobs for trains why trailers. Thank God my people are waking up, at least with this development trailer owners will know it's no longer business as usual. 2 Likes |

stinggy: The railway was comatose for some years before Obasanjo started the reactivation work. The only part of the line that was active throughout was t part from Iddo to Agbado part. Lagos State was involved in ensuring it worked. Kaduna State also worked on part of the line to move people a goods from Kafanchan to Zaria. I believe under Namadi. For people not transporting perishable goods by rail. As long as the railway do not run on time, it is risky using the railway to move perishable goods. What do I mean. Even these days, one is not sure if the journey will take 36 hours or 5 days! You ar not sure when the train will leave. How can one plan with that? 3 Likes |

jieta:So moving tomatoes with train for 38hrs from Kano to Lag is Progress? When d same quantity can be moved by by Trailers in less than 14hrs. Moving Cargos from Apapa or PH or Warri to Inland Ports in such hours would have been a PROGRESS as it will drastically decongest those already over-stretched ports, and many jobs will also be created. |

signz:I am having a thought about this you know. It could bring down the prices of tomatoes consumed by the poor and Ordinary Nigerians. Think about it. This does not mean that tomatoes will not be transported by road anymore, the rich and big corporations like the 5 star hotels, shopping malls etc will go for the train transported tomatoes for freshness and class, while ordinary Nigerians will go for the Mile 12 tomatoes that came on road. It then means the rich won't have to come and distort the prices of the poor in the market for the poor. They pay just about any amount to buy the same thing the poor man is struggling to beat down the price for. Tomatoes for the super rich thru cold train and Tomatoes for the average Man thru 911. Just my thinking. Right or wrong. 3 Likes |

sarrki: Are you calling the dog of ubima, an enemy of the state for DENYING the existence of the railway rehabilitation work carried out under Jonathan's administration. At least the dog of ubima was compensated with a ministerial position. What is your own compensation for BMC work beyond the N250k crumbs salary The Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi, has stated that he never knew that the railways means of transportation still existed in Nigeria. www.nairaland.com/attachments/4266395_amaechineverknewrailways_jpeg93b60e3ad5ed1457c2bc5c7e87dd7984 1 Like |
